At the fault of nobody but the weather (heat wave week) we had a good drive around trying to worn a plan out that wasn’t us being beamed by strong light with no shelter/ diffusion but we certainly got there! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to do this with, as someone that loves a plan - we certainly had gone off our plan and really just made the most of the time we had together, grabbing spots we drove past and climbing fences!

We had such a wonderful chat and a good laugh, I can’t thank John enough for his kind, patient nature - you are a true gentleman and I very much would love the opportunity to work together again!

I had the most wonderful shoot with Jon after a rather adventurous journey.

What should of taken 2.5 hours turned into 5 with motorway closures due to accidents and my sat nav re routing me up a one way country lane, poor Jon also had his studio booking cancel on him so we improvised and shot at his house rather later than originally anticipated.

Jon lives in a idyllic village with breath-taking views. I met his amazing mother, she's 95 and absolutely brilliant, we had a lovely shat over a coffee.

Jon is a really nice guy, chatty respectful full of stories and always showing the back of the camera to ensure I was happy with the images.

Knowing I also do photography he was happy to take on board my ideas and suggestions which is always nice.

The time flew by, we had a lot of fun and giggles, took awesome shots, told stories and I genuinely have made a new friend.

Highly recommended and would definitely shoot together again xx

I had my second shoot with John when I was was hosting a model studio day at f/8 Studio and hopefully we will be able to work together again in the future. :)

John was just lovely to work with and just like before, we had such a wonderful shoot together with a couple of outfit changes and plenty of story-telling and laughing - absolutely loved that!

John is one of the most relaxed and easy-going people I've met and that made our shoot incredibly enjoyable and fun! John is soooo sweet, polite and respectful and at the same time, he's so friendly, down to earth with plenty of stories to tell which are hilarious! :)

Thank you so much John and can't wait to work with you again! :) Oh, and thank you so much John for all the nice comments you leave under my pictures - that's so kind!! :))

Had a fabulous shoot the other day with John. As part of my tour in Cardiff.

We had a bit of a complication with the apartment I booked however John was very understanding and we were able to book F/8 Studios in Gloucester. Which I think turned out even better than what it would have done. In my opinion!

He was so easy to work with and we built a rapport pretty quickly! Happy to let me free pose. But also there with ideas of his own!

Highly recommend to any level of model. I look forward to working with him again!

Thanks for a fab shoot

I had a lovely home shoot with John last month at my home in Swindon.

John is a super person to work with, very easy to chat to and open to ideas of the models own as well as his ideas.

It was a fun shoot with plenty of laughs and chat, as well as some lovely images created.

Thanks John for another great shoot.

Best

What a pleasure it always is to collaborate with John :-)

Prior to shooting pre-communication was great and everything was so easy to organised

During the shoot John gives such a relaxed atmosphere to shoot in. I loved that I could just flow through poses and get on with the shoot.

John is also really good at suggesting ideas and trying new and different things. We got a variety of so many different great looks and themes and produced so many sets during our shoot together.

More than recommended to all Models! Such a creatively interesting, and inteligent photographer and person

Thank you for another fantastic shoot John See you soon again

Best Wishes

I had my first shoot with John at f/8 Studio where I was hosting my studio day and hopefully we can work together again once I'm back! ;)

John was sooo lovely to work with!! He was incredibly easy going, relaxed and great to chat with! We had a lovely chat before we started and continued to chat and joke whilst shooting which made our shoot even more enjoyable :)

We went through variety of outfits and poses, including some crazy ones and of course my silly faces which John seemed to like - so thank you for being so open minded :)!

Throughout the whole shoot, John was so enthusiastic, funny with a positive attitude. He was full of ideas but at the same time, he let me pose freely which was a nice thing:) We had an amazing shoot, full of laughs and chats - just perfect! :)

Thank you for an amazing shoot John and I'm looking forward to working with you again one day!

John came on one of my walk & shoots in the Forest of Dean & I'm so glad he did! I think this was our third shoot together & John was, as usual, super company for the day.

I think in this case John was more of a tour guide than me as he had lots of wonderful stories about the Forest & I really enjoyed hearing them.

John was quick to see the potential in the various locations we visited & his suggestions & ideas were spot on. From the back of the camera the images we got today were super & I can't wait to see them.

As ever John is totally professional & respectful, he is very down to earth & easy going, & shooting with him is a very relaxed & sociable experience. He is an all round lovely person.

So of course I highly recommend him & look forward to working together again.

Thank you so much John for a lovely day!

What a really nice person.

We were worried that our studio would have been demanding but John took to the place and was on tables and chairs, he may have even gone as far as up a tree if he had to!

Absolutely pleasure hosting the studio with you today and you are do welcome back!

What an absolute gent!

I had the pleasure of working with John recently on my Gloucestershire tour, I’m so happy and honoured I got to work with John.

John is the most relaxed, kind and caring photographer I have worked with. He was so kind he even let me finish early so I could drive back to London before the mad rush hour.

We got some cracking shots from edgy fashion, steam punk to art nude.

John enjoyed my ideas that I contributed and had some lovely ideas of his own.

Great conversation throughout the shoot, I really enjoyed his stories :)

John you legend!

Highly recommended and hope to work with you again real soon!

I was so pleased when John arranged to shoot with me at the magical ancient trees location from my casting.

As I’d been to the location several times I was able to point out the opportunities to John & also to offer suggestions about the light (we had harsh sunlight today) & possible poses. John also came up with lots of ideas & I feel we were able to make good use of the location.

It was so lovely to see John again, he’s always chatty & friendly & a very upbeat person, as well as one of the kindest people I know in the industry.

The images I saw on the back of the camera look super & I’m sure we got some good ones.

Thank you John & hope to work with you again.

I had my first shoot with John yesterday and it was a pleasure to work with him.

He was very relaxed and was happy with me to change into different outfits and try new poses.

Overall he was polite and friendly and I felt great throughout the whole shoot.

Would definitely recommend him to any model :)

Can’t wait to shoot again in the future :)
